Warren Sapp Helps Coach Up Bucs' Defensive Line At OTAs
BEAUTY UNLIMITED
ANGELIQUE
This week’s Beauty Unlimited feature is Angelique. This young woman is very confident and will not accept failure to a lack of full effort from anyone around her. She’s definitely not afraid of work- ing hard, making the sacrifices, and just doing what needs to be done to get to where she wants to be. Whatever the case, we’re sure we’ll be seeing more of Angelique and we congratulate her as this week’s Beauty Unlimited feature.
If you want to learn a thing or two about being a dominant defensive lineman in the NFL, you might as well look to somebody who has a gold jacket for doing just that.
Those in attendance at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ organized team activities this week got some hands-on help from one of the greatest to ever wear a Bucs jersey, as Hall of Famer Warren Sapp lent a hand to the de-

fensive coaching staff. “[Warren Sapp and I]
have a good relationship, and we wanted to bring him in to teach the [defensive] line a few things,” Bucs head coach Todd Bowles said. “Coach [Kacy] Rodgers and Coach ‘Lo’ (Lori Locust) were all for it. So, I thought it would be a good idea to learn from a guy that’s done it re- cently, or more recently than the coaches have, and it would be good for the guys to hear and see a different per- spective.”
Former Dallas Cowboys, Chicago Bears Running Back Marion Barber, III, Dies At Age 38
Former Dallas Cowboys and Chicago Bears running back Marion Barber, III has died at the age of 38, the Cowboys said in a statement Wednesday.
"We are heartbroken by the tragic death of Marion Barber, III," the team said. "Marion was an old-school, hard-nosed football player who ran with the will to win every down. He had a pas- sion for the game and love for his coaches and team- mates. Our hearts go out to Marion's family and friends during this difficult time."
The cause of Barber's death is unknown.
Police in Frisco, Texas, said in a statement that they responded to a welfare con- cern Wednesday at an apart- ment they believed to be leased by Barber. Police said they were investigating an unattended death at the location but didn't identify the individual in their state- ment.
"The NFL mourns the tragic loss of Marion Bar- ber III and we extend our deepest condolences to his family and loved ones," the league said in a statement.
MARION BARBER Barber was drafted by
Dallas in the fourth round of the 2005 NFL draft out of Minnesota. He was named to the Pro Bowl in 2007 despite not starting a game for a 13- 3 team that finished with the best record in the NFC. He led the Cowboys with 975 yards rushing and 10 touch- downs that season.
His hard-charging style earned him the nickname "Marion the Barbarian," and he was a fan favorite.
Jarvis Landry On Jameis
Winston: He’s A Leader, One Of
The Reasons I Joined Saints
Wide receiver Jarvis Landry is in his first week of OTAs with the Saints and that’s given him his first chance to work on the field with quarterback Jameis Winston.
Winston is making his way back from last year’s torn ACL and that process still has some way to go before he’ll be at 100 percent. Landry signed with the Saints in mid- May and noted that Winston was still working during the wideout’s post-practice press conference on Thursday while discussing the quarterback’s impact on his decision to come to New Orleans.
JARVIS LANDRY
“He’s a leader, man. He’s ...one of the reasons why I came here, just the conversa- tions that we had, the intent that he’s putting behind the things that he’s saying,” Landry said, via TheAth- letic.com.
